Green plants are producers. This means that they can survive without animals! They can make lots of organic chemicals from a few simple inorganic chemicals. They need simple things like carbon dioxide and water and can make complex things like sugar, starch, fat, and proteins.

yes.this because before starch is produced there are some factors that need to be present.

these are sunlight,chlorophyll,water and carbon dioxide.without any of these photosynthesis cannot occur and therefore starch will not be produced

Starch holds glucose, which can later be used as energy. Photosynthesis is the process of making food/energy, so starch is not so much important in the process of photosynthesis, but it can store excess fuel made by photosynthesis.

No starch is not needed in photosynthesis,instead it is being synthesized during the process of photosynthesis in the dark reactions.
